FIELD AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to the field of display technologies, and particularly relates to a top emitting active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) display panel, a manufacturing method thereof, and a display device.

AMOLED display technology has been widely used due to its advantages of fast response, self-illumination, excellent display effect, and low power consumption

An AMOLED panel generally uses copper or copper alloy with good conductivity for metal wirings. For a bonding pad area, the copper cannot be exposed to a surface as a bonding pad. At present, indium tin oxides (ITO) are used as a bonding pad in a bottom emitting AMOLED panel. However, it is found that as ITO/argentum (Ag)/ITO or indium zinc oxide (IZO)/Ag/IZO are generally used as a top emitting anode in development of top emitting AMOLED panels, in a process of etching the anode, if the bonding pad is the ITO, acid liquor will penetrate into the ITO and etch a metal layer below, which will eventually cause the bonding pad to be abnormal. If the bonding pad is a composite layer with metallic silver, it is prone to encounter silver oxidation in a Reliant Appraise (RA) testing, and in a process of etching a metal layer in a luminescent area, a problem of copper oxidation will also appear.

In a process of implementation, the inventors found that there is at least a following problem in a conventional technology: conventional AMOLED panels have a problem of poor electrical signal transmission.
